HUNT HILL CLIMB SL DISC TUBULAR WHEELSET - UD CARBON SPOKES

SUB-1000 GRAM TUBULAR DISC BRAKE WHEELSET FOR HILL CLIMB RACING

30 DEEP | 26 WIDE EXT | TUBULAR | 963G

THE PURPOSE

Inspired by the passionate British Hill Climb community and developed with input from HUNT-supported athletes, the Hill Climb SL Disc is a hyperlight and minimalist tubular disc-brake wheelset designed specifically for smashing KOMs and PRs from your local wall to the national championships. Ready for the next generation of ultralight disc brake-equipped road bikes, with 30mm deep carbon tubular rims, fully true-able and replaceable UD carbon TaperLock spokes and an ultralight HUNT H_Ratchet UD SL hubset with 9-degree engagement, the wheelset comes in at an ultra-light 963 grams. Disc-specific tubular profile. Important; please note these are for Tubular tires only and will not work with normal clincher or Tubeless tires.

TAPERLOCK UD CARBON SPOKE TECHNOLOGY

HUNT first launched UD Carbon Spoke wheelsets in late 2019, utilizing the now-proven TaperLock carbon spoke technology. The TaperLock system offers riders fully serviceable carbon-spoked wheels that can be trued like any other. With significant increases in lateral responsiveness (see testing info), they have been engineered to provide a responsiveness-to-weight ratio previously unseen on serviceable wheels that delivers your power to the road as effectively as possible.

TUBULAR CARBON RIMS

Working with the world’s best carbon rim suppliers, the HUNT team developed this lightweight climbing wheelset with an ultralight but robust 30mm-deep wheelset that offers a 26mm width, ideal for modern width tubular tires capable of providing the traction needed to fly up steep hills, and the strength required to get back down safely.

H_RATCHET UD SL HUBSET

CNC’d 6066-T6 heat treated aluminium alloy body, the H_Ratchet UD SL hubset takes minimalism to a level not-yet-seen from production wheelsets. The 40-tooth ratchet drive offers 9-degree engagement with pop out end caps for easy serviceability and a drilled out high-strength axle and freehub body (Shimano HG) for further weight reduction. The HG freehub body includes the HUNT signature anti-bite steel insert for protection against cassette gouging, with alloy splines removed to save precious grams.

FEATURES

RIMS I Ultralight 30mm deep tubular rim with 26mm width, optimized for 23-28c tubular tires. Developed with input from Andy Feather, 2022 British National Hill Climb Champion. Disc-specific tubular profile. Important; please note these are for Tubular tires only and will not work with normal Clincher or Tubeless tires.

HUBS I HUNT H_Ratchet UD SL hubs,9-degree/40-tooth ratchet drive, with extruded 6066 alloys. Easily removable end caps and freehub body for quick and easy maintenance.

UD CARBON SPOKES I TaperLock UD carbon spokes offer up to a 30% increase in lateral responsiveness compared to steel equivalents. Only 2.7g per spoke and yet can handle tightening forces of ~450kgf per spoke. Owing to the TaperLock technology, these spokes can be trued using a spoke key from inside the rim bed. Responsiveness that delivers your power to the road as effectively as possible.

FREEHUB BODY I A drilled out high-strength axle and freehub body (Shimano HG) for further weight reduction. The HG freehub body includes the HUNT signature anti-bite steel insert for protection against cassette gouging, with alloy splines removed to save precious grams.

ADAPTABILITY I Our wheels are seriously future proof. We can adapt your wheels to any current axle standard on the market, you just need to let us know what your requirements are by filling in the simple form on the confirmation page after checkout.

WEIGHT I The consequence of the fanatical attention to detail is an outstandingly light 964-gram wheelset weight. Your acceleration and climbing will be super-charged. There are no other wheels specifically designed for the demands of British Hill Climbs, that deliver like the Hill Climb SL.

TUBULAR I Suitable for use with tubular tires only. These wheels are not compatible with tubeless or clincher tires
